Nobody Knows Lyrics

Nobody Knows lyrics

I didnt know (where) there'd be troubles along the way,

nobody told me nothing (nobody told me nothing)nothin 



yeah (x31) 



i went through 8 different schools and 12 different years 

thats 30 different teachers over 10,000 different peers 

and i dint for new one got suspended every time 

besides a few were feelin me and commited dirty crimes 

but never braggin 

i just want you to see me where i have been 

i never proud of it 

so i dont have to go back ther again 

and i used to go like house to house 

sleeping on couch to couch 

walk around sticking out my hands 

looking for a hand out 

only thing got handed out was more bills 

only thing that pulled me out was my will 

god told me the sun dont chill 

told me to make use of one of these skills 

aint for that our or go and beat the block 

aint no way u can heat the cops 

aint no way i could beat the clock 

its just a matter of time shut down you shot 

stay up day and night, livin this way of life 

i was young and restless 

all my children came and then i had a guiding light 

no more that sittin main 

sitting and waiting and thinkin 

that somebody coming to take me up off the streets 

but now i know 



nobody told me that road would be easy 

i dont beleive i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 

nobody told me that the road would be easy 

i cant believe i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 



i say and now im saying 

i can stay here and count on one hand 

how many people see me graduate 

i know a few that did betta bunch that eight 

seeing folks showin up in swarms 

waiting for me to go on 

wanna see nelly perform 

buts whats all before 

i becam this house hold name 

i was playin on little league games 

nobody cared if i go on for three 

nobody out here routin for me 

and my mama supported me in everything 

while she did everything 

some people got the nerve to ask 

yall kiss my ass, that my mama 

that sister didnt need my help 

in a game we soght no wealth 

give anythin that i had just to see her in perfect health 

now we out here complaining i got work to do 

how bad you think you got it 

somebody else got i worse then you 

and i had a up n dont plan on coming back down 

dont plan or leaving her no time soon 

when i got to comfortable now 

wont have no knowledgable wealth 

without no knowledge urself 

no i keep walking this road 

my mind body and soul 

(and i know and i know and i know) 



nobody told me that road would be easy 

i dont beleive i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 

nobody told me that the road would be easy 

i cant beleive i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 



i didnt know therd be toubles along the way 

nobody told me nothing 

ther was nobody to ease my pain 

and ive been walking this road 

for forever and a day 

now im in search for something 

for someone to help me find my way 



and now i know 

nobody told me that road would be easy 

i dont beleive i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 

nobody told me that the road would be easy 

i cant beleive i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 



nobody told me that road would be easy 

i dont believe i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 

nobody told me that the road would be easy 

i cant beleive i made it this far 

my whole life and i've been working so hard 

and i know 



repeat to fade
